You can find a GPS button on this screen, too, which serves as a switch for turning GPS
on/off.
Tip: You can plan routes from places other than your current position by switching the GPS
off, otherwise the starting point is always the place where the GPS signal is received. Also,
you can save battery life by turning off GPS reception.
GPS data displayed
The virtual sky on the left represents the currently visible part of the sky above you, with your
position as the centre. The satellites are shown at their current positions. The GPS receives
data from both the green and grey satellites. Signals from the grey satellites are only received,
while green ones are used by the GPS to calculate your current location. On the right you
can see the satellite signal strength bars. Grey bars are for the grey and black bars are for
the green satellites. To identify satellites use their numbers also shown in the virtual sky. The
more satellites your GPS tracks (the green ones), the better your calculated position will be.
Additional pieces of information on this screen are: current position in latitude/longitude
format, elevation, speed, date, time and calculated accuracy.
Note: Accuracy can be affected by several factors the GPS cannot take into account. Use this
accuracy information only as estimation.
There are two icons on the left to show the status of the GPS connection and the quality of
reception.
Tapping the GPS button stops and starts the GPS engine.
